Chapter 140 (4)
Before being dragged out of the room, Tong Yao heard the girls mother ask the police whether having too many of these kinds of cases on record would affect the girls chances of going to college
Tong Yao thought it was quite strange, what did she mean by too many of these cases?
Before she could figure it out, the glass door closed behind her and she couldnt hear the discussion inside the office anymore
Tong Yao, Lu Sicheng and Xiao Rui sat outside the office. Tong Yao looked at her finger which was wrapped in bandages. Lu Sicheng, seeing Tong Yao wasnt saying anything, lifted his hand to touch her head. Xiao Rui asked: Why dont you say something? Do you feel sorry for that girl?
...... Tong Yao looked up to glance at Lu Sicheng and mumbled: Im also a girl.
Lu Sicheng chuckled: En. We only have this one girl as well.
An hour had passed before they heard a clamor inside the office. Tong Yao could hear the girls frightening wail, accompanied by her mother shouting: Detention! What detention! Five days? Not even a single day is acceptable! My daughter has classes to go to!
Besides, she didnt get detention the last time, why detention now! Its the exact same thing as last time, it cant be that youve taken a bribe from them-- --
Tong Yao was startled by the sudden outburst before she comprehended what they were referring to. It turned out that the girl had done the exact same thing about half a year ago. She had sent a threatening letter to someone at the time. That time the matter was resolved after the police filed a report on her and the girls family paid some money to the person being threatened.
The person who had been threatened was the one frightened to death. The girl on the other hand thought the whole thing wasnt a big deal since she and her family didnt pay much money to settle and she didnt get detention because she was underaged
As a result, she did the same thing again six months later.
But this time it was a different story.
> Article 12. If a person who had attained to the age of 14 but not to the age of 18 commits an act against the administration of public security, he shall be given a relatively light or mitigated penalty. Article 20.
Under one of the following circumstances, a heavier penalty shall be imposed on a person: (4) The person has been subjected to penalty for this act against the administration of public security within the past six months. Article 42.
A person who commits one of the following acts shall be detained for not more than five days or be fined not more than 500 yuan; and if the circumstances are relatively serious, he shall be detained for not less than 5 days but not more than 10 days and may, in addition, be fined not more than 500 yuan: (1) writing letters of intimidation or threatening the personal safety of another person by other means Lu Sicheng said slowly: For the first offense for someone underage, its only reeducation.
But if theres a record within six months, then itll be more serious. Well, how would I know she has a record before, right? Its really not my fault.
Lu Sicheng stretched his long legs, lazily sitting on the bench outside the policemans office.
Tong Yao took a look at him. His cell phone was still in his pocket. She paused for a moment before asking: How would you know all this You memorized it from Baidu last night?
Lu Sicheng gave her a glance: I was a top student at China University of Political Science and Law before I became a professional player.
Tong Yao was dumbfounded: ................................Thats impossible.
Xiao Rui: Its true. When he came back to China to play professionally, he even went back to school to take his finals. When the others were playing training matches, he was sitting at the side studying, looking rather silly.
Tong Yao: ......
Lu Sicheng: Arent I something?
Tong Yao: ....................................................
Lu Sicheng stood up. Wailing and howling could be heard inside the office saying I dont believe it youre being bribed, which was mixed with the policeman's angry scolding. Lu Sicheng pulled Tong Yao up: Lets go. The shows over. Lets go home.
